Has your mind changed about this year?

I didn't really think we had a chance in the east this year. But after watching Kentucky beat Missouri and South Carolina, Vandy putting up a fight to Ole Miss, Georgia romping Carolina and Missouri barely beating UConn. I think now if we can beat either LSU or Ole Miss we have a chance to win the east. Georgia is the only team I see right now who has a chance besides us. They play Bama and Auburn for their cross divisional game and I can see them beating Auburn. Go Gators!!!!

UF could easily be 4-4 after the next four games.
That being said, mizzou looks way more beatable than I thought they'd be.
LSU and Ole Miss are tough tough games though, and Georgia is rolling.
If UF can steal one of those games, get to 5-3, and then beat Vandy, USCe, and FAU to get to 8-3, I would call this a very succesful season.
FSU for a 9th win would be the cherry on top.

I think we COULD win the East, but I won't be let down if we don't.
Coaching is pretty damned good so far, and this team thinks it can win. That is the single biggest difference I saw between that team last night and the teams the last two years. And we clearly have some gamers out there now.
That being said, it's pretty typical for Gators it seems to make the best case the expectation and then piss all over everyone when it didn't happen. There is so much youth on this team, and I think sooner or later, it loses a few games. If we go 9-3 and end the season with a decent bowl win and a team that once again believes they can beat anyone if they grind it out, I'll be happy.

I still think we end the season 7-5/8-4 . I thought these last 2 games would be tough and we were lucky to beat the Vols. if we beat Ole Miss and actually mix up the play calling and run the ball more on first down , then I would change my mind.

Let me say this:
Losing to Ole Miss and LSU wouldn't end UF's hope at a division title. Just root for Alabama to beat UGA this weekend.
If that happens, even if UF loses both games to the SEC west, all UF has to do is win out against the SEC east and they will win the division.
That is not crazy talk - Mizzou is not a great team, and is definitely beatable, South Carolina will improve but they are still hot garbage, vanderbilt is half a football team, and the only true challenge will be Georgia, and that is always a fight.
That is how you win the east. If UF wins one of the SEC west games, that is just a cherry on top.
